Manufactured in India, supplied in Jeddah
Soundproof curtains in Jeddah
We manufacture soundproof curtains at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Jeddah. Made at our own plant in India and shipped straight into Jeddah, so the container lands at the city rather than a long drive away.

This comes from our own plant, not a trading desk. We do not have an office in your city and we will not invent one. What we can give you is factory pricing, consistent material and a technical answer before you commit.
01 / Start here
The product, described honestly, for a Jeddah brief
A layered curtain with a mass loaded vinyl core, used where an opening has to stay an opening. It is the answer for a doorway, a stage, a partition that must move, not a substitute for a wall.
Work reaching us from Jeddah is mostly hotels and hospitality, corporate offices, apartments, hospitals, schools, retail.
Villas and apartment blocks are concrete and block with hard stone or tile throughout. Mass is there, but every room is live and impact noise between floors is untreated.
- Full height with return Curtain taken floor to soffit with a side return and an overlap, because the gap is what leaks, not the fabric.
- Track with a seal Ceiling track plus a floor seal or drape, so the perimeter is closed when it is drawn.
- Double layer at a doorway Two curtains with an air gap where a single layer will not reach the target.
- What it will not do A curtain is only as good as its perimeter. Hung short, hung flat against a frame, or with a gap at the side, it will measure nothing like the figure on the sheet.
Full specification
Thickness, density, NRC by frequency, fire class, standard sizes and build-up detail for soundproof curtains are on the main product page. This page covers what that means for a project in Jeddah.
02 / Data sheet
One specification sheet, the same in every market
The specification below is the same everywhere we supply, because a specification that changed by city would not be a specification. What changes is which grade and build-up is the right buy, and that is what the rest of this page is about.
- Standard5.5 kg per sq m. Openings, stages, temporary partitions
| Build-up | 800 GSM face, foam, 3 mm SoundBlanket MLV core, foam, 800 GSM face |
|---|---|
| Total thickness | 10 to 12 mm |
| Weight | 5.5 kg per sq m |
| Reduction | Up to 30 dB |
| STC | 30 |
| Test standard | ASTM E90 |
| Standard sizes | 8 x 4 ft and 5 x 4 ft |
Where a consultant is already engaged on a Jeddah project, we supply to their specification and send the test reports rather than describing them. More on working with acoustic consultants.
03 / On the ground
What the buildings in Jeddah do to the specification
- A gateway for pilgrimage hospitality
Large hotel quantities often continue inland from here. Tell us if that is happening and we stage and pack for the second leg.
- Coastal humidity
PET felt does not absorb moisture, shed fibre or feed mould, which matters on a humid Red Sea coast where mineral products sag.
- The port is at the city
Direct sea into Jeddah keeps the road leg short and the landed cost predictable, which is unusual in this region.
- Guest rooms fail at the door
Corridor noise and the next room cause more complaints than room acoustics. Door and wall detailing is where the work is.
- The housing stock
Villas and apartment blocks are concrete and block with hard stone or tile throughout. Mass is there, but every room is live and impact noise between floors is untreated.
- The studio and content scene
Media and content production is growing quickly, and rooms are being built inside existing commercial shells with no isolation plan. The background noise floor is usually the first problem to solve.
We would rather argue about the build-up at design stage than on site. See how we support architects.
04 / Durability
What the Jeddah climate rules in and rules out
Jeddah is hot and dry for most of the year, with dust and high daytime surface temperatures, and that narrows the sensible material list before acoustics is even discussed.
Dust is the enemy of open-cell products. PET felt does not shed, does not hold dust in the way fabric-wrapped glass wool does, and wipes down. Timber needs a stable indoor RH or it moves.
The risk we design against here is dust ingress and thermal movement in long runs.
Designers get colour, pattern and CNC options with the absorption figure attached to each. See how we work with interior designers.
05 / Route to site
Supply into Jeddah, start to site
| Ships from | Palwal, Haryana, India |
|---|---|
| Arrives at | Jeddah, then a short road run or onward inland |
| Dispatch | 4 to 7 working days |
| Freight | Sea into Jeddah |
| Packing | Rolled and bagged with track and fixings listed separately. |
| Lead time | Made to size. Confirmed at quote. |
Standard items dispatch in 4 to 7 working days. Grooved panels and custom colours take longer, and we say so before you order, not after.
Sea freight direct into Jeddah, then a short road run to site or onward inland. Air freight for samples and urgent quantities.
The same 5 piece minimum applies on export.
| Any size | 5 pieces |

Curtains are made to size, so the minimum is counted in pieces rather than area.

Where this goes wrong, said plainly
-
The wrong product for the problem
A curtain is only as good as its perimeter. Hung short, hung flat against a frame, or with a gap at the side, it will measure nothing like the figure on the sheet. We quote the detail, not just the fabric.
-
Square footage quoted before the room is understood
Anyone can price a wall. Working out how much material the room actually needs usually reduces the order, which is why not everyone does it.

Suppliers who imply a Jeddah presence
Ask any supplier where the material is made and who carries the warranty. We make it at Palwal in Haryana and we say so on every page, including this one.
Jeddah: questions we are actually asked
Is there a Jeddah factory behind this product?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Jeddah as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Made at our own plant in India and shipped straight into Jeddah, so the container lands at the city rather than a long drive away. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
What decides the specification for a Jeddah project?
Direct sea into Jeddah keeps the road leg short and the landed cost predictable, which is unusual in this region. Large hotel quantities often continue inland from here. Tell us if that is happening and we stage and pack for the second leg. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
How does the Jeddah climate affect this product?
Jeddah is hot and dry for most of the year, with dust and high daytime surface temperatures. Dust is the enemy of open-cell products. PET felt does not shed, does not hold dust in the way fabric-wrapped glass wool does, and wipes down. Timber needs a stable indoor RH or it moves. The failure we design against here is dust ingress and thermal movement in long runs.
When would material land on a Jeddah site?
ships from: Palwal, Haryana, India, arrives at: Jeddah, then a short road run or onward inland, dispatch: 4 to 7 working days. Standard items dispatch in 4 to 7 working days. Grooved panels and custom colours take longer, and we say so before you order, not after.
What should you not buy soundproof curtains for?
A curtain is only as good as its perimeter. Hung short, hung flat against a frame, or with a gap at the side, it will measure nothing like the figure on the sheet. We quote the detail, not just the fabric.
Is there a minimum order, and how does it arrive?
The same 5 piece minimum applies on export. Any size, 5 pieces. Curtains are made to size, so the minimum is counted in pieces rather than area. Rolled and bagged with track and fixings listed separately.
Next step
Tell us the room, we will tell you the build-up
We quote from drawings, not from a square foot rate. Send a plan and the section through the critical wall or ceiling and you will get something you can actually build from.
